Hi folks. I'm one of the three guys who runs Cloak (https://www.getcloak.com/ https://www.getcloak.com/).
Cloak is a super simple VPN where both the back-end service and front-end apps are tightly integrated. (We think of it as the "Dropbox of VPNs" in the sense that, like Dropbox, it's so easy to use.)
Basically, it's the VPN service+applications I wanted for myself when I started looking around and couldn't find anything (1) easy enough and (2) non-sketchy. Right now Cloak supports OS X (10.7+) and iOS (6+). We've been around for a while and I know there are a number of happy customers here on HN.
In any case, please let me know if you have any questions, and please do give it a spin. Cheers!
(EDIT for clarity, and because X of Y descriptions are not always loved.)
- computer 13y agoThe "Dropbox of VPNs"? What does that even mean?
- davepeck 13y agoWe think Dropbox is great because it's so easy to use and "just works". We designed Cloak with that thought in mind.
- chrischen 13y agoWhile Dropbox is simple to use, it's hardly the first thing that comes to mind when you make a comparison to Dropbox. I'd change that phrase because it's very confusing.

- newman314 13y agoI see that Cloak uses racoon under the hood for iOS in what I assume to be a roadwarrior config. Do you mind sharing an appropriately scrubbed config so that I can compare to see what I'm doing wrong in my setup? There seems to be a dearth of viable configs out there and this would be immensely helpful. Thanks in advance. FWIW, this is what I have so far. http://superuser.com/questions/553193/how-do-i-configure-dd-wrt-to-forward-ipsec-traffic-to-an-internal-server-to-supp http://superuser.com/questions/553193/how-do-i-configure-dd-...
